Baptisms at Hillingdon, Uxbridge St Margaret
1626, 10 Sep John, sonne to Willm Coomestocke and Elizabeth his wife

[Year of marriage based on birth of oldest child.]

This appears to be one the very first record of any Comstock in America.
24 Nov 1639. John Ressell in his will gave to his wife Jane "the remainder of his time to be served by John Comstock"
quoted from E. B. Comstock in The Comstock Family in America, 1938.

Estimates of John's birth, guess him to be about age 15 when his "time to be served" was mentioned. If he was an apprentice to John Russell, he could have been of most any age from 9 or 10 to 21. If the above baptism is correct, he was perhaps age 13 in 1639. He probably married 1660 or 61 since his first child was born in April of 1662. Most men of this time married around age 25 to 30 or born by 1630, so he might have been quite young in 1639.


John lived in Saybrook CT.
Appointed one of a committe of six to divide the town of Saybrook and form the town of Lyme in Feb of 1666. "Connecticut Puritan Settlers" by Royal R. Hinman
